"The mind is a superb instrument if used rightly. Used wrongly, however, it becomes very destructive. To put it more accurately, it is not so much that you use your mind wrongly - you usually don't use it at all. It uses you. This is the disease. You believe that you are your mind. This is the delusion. The instrument has taken over."

~ Eckhart Tolle





Started reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. I'm only into the second or third chapter, but this book is so inspiring. It can change your way of thinking.
Highly recommend it.






I also recommend Junky by William S. Burroughs.
I read this book in about 2 days and it's pretty intense.
Basically just a memoir of his battle with drugs, but an amazing read.
